Unlocking Patissier

You unlock this Job by defeating Angelo in Yunohana at the end of chapter 2.

Equipment Guide

Patissier only has S rank in Daggers and C rank or lower in all other weapons.

Armor

Light armor for the extra magic defense, plus magic attack if you are going to offensive as well.

Equip a shield in your off-hand if you want more defense.

Accessories that increase Speed/AGI are very useful to ensure you go before the enemy

Weapons

Dagger, particularly the Falcon Knife since it increases speed.

Rods if you want to also do magic damage with a sub Job.

Ability List

The specialty for Patissier is Prolong Enfeeble.

Prolong Enfeeble - Status afflictions inflicted by characters with this support ability will last for twice their normal duration.

Level 1

Bon Appetit - Gives access to a variety of confections to feed enemies. These will either lower their stats, cause status ailments, or make them weak to certain elements.

Each one requires Confectionery ingredients.

You can get these from using the Harvest ability, find them from battles or in dungeons, or buy them from the Adventurer once you've unlocked them from the moon base.

Level 2

Harvest - Gives Confectionery ingredients while in battle. You can do this multiple times, but items vary by location.

Level 3

Flambe - Unleash a fire attack that damages all foes proportional to each target's current BP. 0.5x - 2.0x damage.

Level 4

Decoration - Raises target's likelihood of being targeted by the enemy to the highest level possible for 10 turns.

Level 10

The in-game description only says attack items, but I tested it and it works with recovery items as well.

Level 11

Piestorm - Toss 4 pies at random enemies with each lowering a different attribute (P.Atk, P.Def, M.Atk, and M.Def) by 25% for 4 turns.

Cross Job Tips

There are multiple things you can do with Patissier.

Freelancer is great if you want to build on the Job's use of items.

Freelancer's Waste Not support ability gives you a 50% chance to not consume items and it works with your Bon Appetit abilities.

Catmancer is you want to use items to attack as well.

Mixed with the Patissier and Freelancer support abilities, you can deal a lot of damage as well as heal very well using only items.

This makes it nearly the same as the Salve-maker Job from Bravely Default.

Magic Jobs. Patissier has a high INT so you can use damaging or support magic as your sub Job to make it even more versatile.

Combat Tips

Patissier is all about crippling the enemy and supporting your team. Items for All is pretty much required since it lets you use those Bon Appetit effects on all enemies at once.

If you are using a tank in your party, this Job is useful even if you only use Decoration, since you can use it on the tank to give them the highest chance possible of being targeted.

Patissier is also good for a healer or elemental damage dealer if you use Glace/Attack Item Amp and Critical Hitter since it greatly increases the effectiveness of items and gives you a chance to crit with them.
